<p>@CalvinTBOD QuestBridge is not at all a disadvantage, as a matter of fact, it helps increase your chances of attending the college of your choice. I was part of the National College Match Scholarship and was matched with Stanford, my first choice school that I really didn’t think I had a chance of getting into. Not only did I get an amazing FA package, but I have a support system at Stanford with the QB program to keep me on track. QB isn’t just a great scholarship opportunity, it is a whole network of people whose goal is to help kids like us succeed in the colleges of our choice. Another great thing is, even if you’re not matched, your application goes on into the Regular Decision round with the QB app as a supplement to your CommonApp, meaning you have twice as many chances to show them how great an applicant you are. I really hope that you take the opportunity to do the QB programs and that you get accepted into Stanford, and any other schools you want. Hope this helps you make your choice. (:</p>
